Re: Hayden Hurst
Right. Andrews is hurt, use Hurst more in his role. Ingram is banged up, use Gus. They seemed to shy away from "next man up" a little bit. Andrews and Ingram could still have had roles, but no way should Ingram have touched the ball more than Gus, and HH should have been more the go-to TE than Andrews.

Re: Hayden Hurst
This. I venture to say a hampered Ingram/Andrews is less than a fresh Gus/Hurst. Makes no sense. I know Ingram it's the soul of the team, but the coaches should have known better. I feel like the coaches led with their hearts: giving Ingram a chance, allowing LJ to try the win the game from the pocket to silence critics.... Instead of their heads. Real interested hearing how Harbs answers this question when asked by the media.

Re: Hayden Hurst
Just a quick point of fact:
Marc Andrews is faster then Hayden Hurst

Re: Hayden Hurst
Yea, I was pretty confused to see them using Andrews as the in-line TE. That's 1) a position that Hurst normally plays even with Boyle (they both line up there more than Andrews) and 2) not Andrews' strong point.
To be pedantic, it was 3 plays later. Brown caught a pass (and was also injured after getting his neck compressed), and Lamar threw a pass deep left to Boykin that was knocked away (defender came through the back, but "did a good job of minimizing contact" per Ian Eagle). Then came the hold on the scramble (that provided no more yards for Lamar either).
Andrews was the only TE on the field for that play. Hurst was on the field for 6 of the 8 snaps following Boyle's injury; he missed this snap and the preceeding incompletion to Boykin.
I wonder if it was a situation where Lamar made a different read on the defense than Hurst. Lamar sees Hurst open in the middle of 4 defenders but running himself into coverage, so he throws the ball early hoping Hurst recognizes it.
Sack wasn't great, but the Ravens had already burned ~35 seconds by not using their TOs earlier (completion to Roberts at 01:43, completion to Snead at 01:03).Shared Google Folder with Ravens spreadsheets, nextGen charts, and more! Please share my content! (attribution to Twitter requested)
